Learning to cook?

How do you get better at ANYTHING? Do it a bunch.

But don't try and start somewhere weird like potato croquettes or something, make some fucking spaghetti, learn to make different kinds of eggs, make oatmeal from scratch, make simple ass comfort food dishes like shepherds pie and so on. Learn how to marinate meat and how to broil chicken. Learn how to make a perfect steak on a grill, in a pan, wherever and whenever.

It all boils down to practice, practice, practice. And since I know you're definitely lifting, this will heavily promote your gains.

Practice.

If you use good ingredients, your food won't ever be bad. It just might not be great till you figure out what works.

To start, look up recipes, and avoid very strong spices that can nuke a whole dish. You can't ruin your food if all you're using is a good piece of meat, onion, garlic, etc. Worst case is it's a little bland.
